I think you should visit Koya-san, Nara, Himeji, Takayama, and other such places if you want to see some of Japan's history. Shirahama beach, Nachi Falls, Lake Biwa, the Japan Alps, and the Wakayama coast have a lot of natural beauty. For food, Arida and Minabe are just south of Wakayama City and have mikan (oranges) and plums, while Momoyama-cho to the east has great peaches. Maybe head over to Shikoku as well!
